Murphy speaks quite well although it isn't very clear to strangers. Anyone who has ever lived with him (mum, dad, husband, SIL) usually can understand what he's saying but sometimes I do have to translate lol, he's quite good with context too. I didn't expect for him to ever talk or anything, because google and a lot of people do say that they aren't very chatty birds.
He can say:
- Hewwo (not hello...hewwo)
- kisses/gimme kiss
- good baby/bird/boy/murpie
- stinky, sometimes stinky boy/bird
- (cuss word, because of course)
- mummy/daddy
- cassie (recently started saying this because i always say "guess who's home!! cassie/daddy" whenever someone comes home)
- murpie bird/murphy bird
- nanight (when its bedtime, usually preceded by "no")
- come out?
- do poopies (sometimes says "do poopie, come out?" cuz i always ask him if he needs to poopie before he comes out)
- come here (frequently followed by "come out?" when i go over to his cage)
- mmmmmmm (mostly followed by a slurp), its good (usually when i change his water and occasionally when he's just drinking, but sometimes he does it to his food?? at random intervals??)
- i love you (usually said when cuddling or when he's being naughty, because how can i stay mad if he says that to me??)
- hi baby (when i come home)
- peekaboo (in the morning when being uncovered, or when playing)
- beaky (usually mumbled when he is sleepy and/or is chewing on something)
- am i a good bird?/murpie good bird?
- no (when he's doing something naughty or i tell him its bedtime)
- baby bird
- huh?
- what?
he mumbles a lot after he's put to bed, so sometimes i hear what sound like potential new words.
he also makes various noises like slurping, smoke alarm battery noise, and "sings"
sushigirl didn't really talk, she mostly mimicked noises but she did know how to say peekaboo. she mostly made gasp noises (like "*gasp* PEEKABOO") and kisses, but we also didn't have her that long. she did start mimicking only after a month or two of having her, i do think she would've learnt more noises and words had she not passed.
